Please note:
If you have already flashed an Open Beta (you are currently running the latest Open Beta) you will receive this new build as an OTA.
If you ARE NOT running open beta software and would like to, please refer to the flashing instructions and the full ROM found in the downloads page here:
http://downloads.oneplus.net/
Once you migrate to the Beta path, you will continue to receive Open Beta OTAs. You will NO LONGER receive the regular Official Stable OTAs.
Moving back to the Official OTA path from the Beta path will require a full install and clean flash (FULL WIPE of all data and cache)
Make sure to let us know how you feel about the beta builds here too, I am watching.
Edit: Currently the E-warranty card feature is still under testing, the testing data showed on the card won't be treated as an evidence for your warranty, also it won't effect your actual warranty.
To clarify, the warranty expiry date should be the warranty start date. We'll continue testing and verifying the accuracy of the data. PM me if you have any questions. And please do not share your IMEI code in public.
